Question

It says to graph each linear equation how would i do this: x-2y=6

Answer 1

write it in the form y = mx + b first
2y = x - 6
y = x/(2) - 3

Answer 2

the y-intercept is -3, so the point (0, -3) is on the graph. Plot that point, then find one other point on the graph and plot it

Answer 3

for example, when x = 2, y = -2, so (2, -2) is another point on the line.

Answer 4

one you've plotted two points, draw a line through them and you're done

Answer 5

Wait it says you got it wrong

Answer 6

in the back of my book its plotted as 3-1/2

Answer 7

err, what does the back say?

Answer 8

because there are other methods, but this one wasn't wrong.

Answer 9

Ya, you got it rite, Thank you for all the help man, I really needed it.. Thanks again!

Answer 10

But how would i solve for this 6x+3=y
